GIS Date Input and Editing Question:

How Sorting records in GIS Date?

Answer:

Sorting temporarily rearranges your data file records, so you can view, select, update, or print them in the new sorted sequence. Although the specifics vary by program, you generally choose the field (or fields) you want to sort by. The first sort field arranges, usually in ascending or descending order, the records based on the field's contents. For example, a class roster might be sorted alphabetically by last name. Some systems allow you to choose a second sort field (or more), which arranges records (in ascending or descending order) when two or more records have the same first field value. If your alphabetical list has four students with the last name Maria then those four records could be rearranged in alphabetical order based on their first name.
